intake

Cooking/Food, again.
1. Tea or Coffee or juice in the morning, and why?
Protein shake of some kind, usually chocolate, and I like a Lo-Carb Monster but it is not a must like the protein shake is.
2. What's your typical breakfast on workdays, and what on weekends?
I do a lot of yogurt for breakfast but usually opt for leftovers if there are any to be had.
3. What do you drink through the day?
I get three protein drinks in a day, 4 to 5 hours between each one. I like to have that morning Blue Monster if I can. Aside from that? Vitamin water zero (the orange or lemonade flavors) and water.
4. Best snack?
Nuts - peanuts or almonds usually be mixed is fine too.
Cheese - Cheddar is better than most. I get tired of Jack because I get so much when I am at work.
5. Your favorite dinner when you cook for yourself alone?
Just a simple sandwich. Be it grill cheese, PB & J, tuna salad, or egg salad.

Brock-a-saurus Rex

1.What was your favorite cartoon as a child?
Underdog, GI Joe, Transformers
2. Do you read comic books? Why or why not?
I used to. They get really expensive. I actually once changed jobs to be able to afford my monthly Batman habit.
3. Have you read a book and thought it should be turned into a movie? If so, which book?
Pretty much any of Christopher Moore's stuff
4. Do you watch cartoons now if you are a teenager/adult?
I do. I never have stopped. My favorite of all time is Batman The Animated Series. I love FLCL, Samurai Champloo, and I am currently waiting for new The Venture Bros.
5. What is your favorite quote from a television show?
The Venture Bros. is like a quote machine.
Hank: I've thought a lot about it and if we can't get the antidote in time and it comes down to it... I... well, I want you to be the one to kill me.
Brock: Don't talk like that Hank. We're going to find...
Hank: Promise me Brock!
Brock: Ok
Hank: Promise me.
Brock: Ok, I promise.
Hank: Super swear?
Brock: Yes Hank.
(pause)
Hank: Hey Brock, how would you do it.
Brock: You're asleep, quick jerk on the neck, you'll never feel a thing.
Hank: You've thought about this.
Brock: Yes, I have

Wait...Wut?

Whenever I am running a cash till and it is clear that the person I am helping is not paying attention to me, or the transaction, at all I call nickels 'big dimes'. Well, it all comes back around folks. I was just at Quiktrip and the guy behind the counter finished the transaction by saying "Have a rest of your day". I thought... Wut? Not "Have a nice/good day" not "Enjoy the rest of your day" but "Have a rest of your day". May as well bid someone adieu with "Keep breathing now ya hear". I simply shrugged it off. Maybe I heard wrong, maybe the guy mixed two farewells together and didn't even know it. Then I check the palm of my hand where he put my change. 10 cents short. I let this guy slide on his little game and it cost me 2 "big dimes".
